NOTE 


As it is necessary to begin printing who’s who in August, in many 
cases occurrences of a later date are not recorded ; deaths reported up to 
the middle of October have been included, however, in the Obituary. 

In view of misunderstandings that sometimes arise it should be 
pointed out that the statements in regard to children of a marriage 
should be the number of sons and daughters now living ; also, under 
Clubs it is the practice to print the names of London clubs without 
the word London at the end, although in the case of clubs elsewhere 
the name of the towns where they are situated should be given. 

It is well to bear in mind that a proof for correction cannot be 
sent unless there is an address. As any sort of correction, even well- 
meant attempts to cut down biographies, involves expense, it is re- 
quested that no alterations should be made unless absolutely necessary. 
Corrections must be made on the proofs themselves, and not written 
out on separate slips of paper. 

Anyone who has had the Companionage of a British Order con- 
ferred on him and has not yet been included is invited to write for a 
form on which to fill in particulars as to birth, parentage, career, etc., 
for the next edition.

60 YEARS 

OF 

MAGNIFICENT SERVICE 

For 60 years the National Union of Railwaymen 
has been helping the widows and children of 
deceased railway workers. 

During this period the mothers of over 26,000 
children have been assisted by monetary grants. 

Over £1,000,000 have been paid in benefits. 

At the present time 4,577 boys and girls are par> 
ticipating. 

The policy of the N.U.R. is to assist to keep the 
home going when the breadwinner has been taken 
away. Thus the children are not denied the 
blessings of home influence. 

Funds are urgently needed to carry on this great 
work, the annual cost of which is approximately 
£40,000. 

150,000 railwaymen each contribute a small sum 
weekly, but, as this is not sufficient to cover ex- 
penditure, assistance is sought from the benevolent 
public. 

The Secretary will gladly furnish further information 
on application. Please write to— 

John Marchbank, 

Unity House, 

Euston Road,

IS 


THE VIVISECTION ACT 

This Act) as enforced by successive Secretaries of State, 
passed **to amend the law relating to cruelty to 
animals has become ineffective and obsolete. There 
are now 352 places in this country where experiments on 
living animals are allowed by law to take place, there 
are 1,982 licensed vivisectors of whom 263 are women, 
but there are only 3 Government Inspectors. 

SEVEN MILLION EXPERIMENTS 

Since the Act was passed, and some sort of record 
had to be kept, the vivisectors admit to having per- 
formed experiments on 7,824,880 living animals. What 
has actually taken place none but the vivisectors and 
their victims really know, but from the evidence of their 
own publications the most atrocious cruelty takes place. 

ALTER THE ACT 

Is it not time that the Law was altered and this welter 
of suffering and misery inflicted on helpless sentient 
animals was stopped ? 

THE POLICY OF THE SOCIETY 

The Society advocates the total abolition of scientific 
experiments on living animals and seeks to attain this 
object by every possible means. 

The Society does not oppose, but, on the contrary, 
supports any and every measure for the amelioration of 
the present condition of vivisected animals, such as the 
Dog’s Protection Bill. 

Further particulars of cruel experiments on animals can be obtained from :

Who’s Who among the Blind 

At the National Institute for the Blind there is a Blind 
Who’s Who, constituting a record of the many and 

SOMETIMES astonishing ACHIEVEMENTS OF BLIND PEOPLE. 

These people have conquered blindness by their own courage and ability, 
and by making use of the special means devised to assist them. 

The National Institute provides these special means. It is the largest 
publisher of Braille books and periodicals in the world; it supplies 
apparatus and appliances ; it maintains Homes for Blind Babies, a College 
for Blind Girls, and a School of Massage. In brief, it helps in every 
possible way the 67,000 blind people of this country to attain in- 
dependence and success. 

Will you please help the Institute’s work so chat the number of people 
who, by their achievements, gain a place in the Blind Who’s Who 
may be increased. 

Donations are immediately needed and should be sent to:

six have been received, and of the three hundred at present in the Schools, 
which are maintained entirely by voluntary subscriptions, no fewer than one 
hundred are the orphans of men who lost their lives by drowning and violence. 

During the war upwards of seven hundred men, who had been brought 
up in the Institution, were commanding and officering Merchant vessels 
which rendered such inestimable services to the country at the time of its 
greatest need. 

Over two hundred children have been admitted who have lost their fathers 
through enemy action, and were admitted immediately on application. 

Help is urgently needed, and fullest information may be obtained on 
application.
